Sonic 1 Overhauled

Very nice! I'm liking what I'm seeing here, although your pallets (namely Spring Yard and Scrap Brain) need some work. I look forward to seeing where you go with this.

 

Wow! That greenhill looks GORGEOUS! Can't wait to play it! :v: But it's kind hard to know exactly how things really look because of the JPG quality. The other zones look good too, but Labyrinth bugs me a bit. It looks strange, I just can't put my finger on it though.

 

Your Spring Yard Zone is trippy as hell, and I love it! Awesome take on the zone.

I'm also digging the patterns you used in Labyrinth Zone. Great stuff, keep it up! :v:

 

I just noticed that is LZ has Eggman in the BG. =P

I like the direction your going with in GHZ, even if it looks a little empty. Like you said though, it's only temporary. Great job! :v:

 

It looks like your screenshots use a JPEG compression. Unfortunately, the default settings for most JPG saves/converters is not very high, and in small resolution shots like this that only use a few colors, the artifacts that show up are particularly noticable.


Basically, what I'm saying is that you should use PNG. By what I've heard, it also produces smaller files.

 

That GHZ looks awesome. I also like what you've done with Spring Yard Zone. It looks so much fun to play through.

I do have to agree though, the pallete for LZ just seems an odd direction to go on. I don't know. Maybe changing the background color would remedy the problem. Otherwise, your LZ level design looks fair.

Hope to play the demo soon! :v:

 

The trees in GHZ look pretty crap, and when I got to LZ I noticed the problem lies probably in the fact that you uploaded the screenshots as JPG.
Could you up them in PNG please? Would make them easier to judge.

 

Looks pretty nice, jpeg aside, and it's good to see someone finally using those Shadow sprites. I always thought they'd be good in a game.

 

Oh, God, the JPG

Ah, well, that aside, it's a good-looking hack so far. Please post images in png next time :/

 

The art, for a start, isn't bad, but the Palettes really could do with some work, I bet once the palettes have been improved the art will look so much better.

 

Sorry, but I definitely prefer the older one. It could do with a better color choice, though.

 

I don't know, I just like the original art better.

 

2nd one. It's not as busy as the first one, and it doesn't draw your eye away.

 

I miss the sunset. :v:

Looking good nonetheless.

Second one is my choice.

 

Only thing I REALLY don't like is the trees, they are too choppy and look like crap.
Otherwise, not bad.
